R has been in a couple of local hospitals all this week, her blood pressure spiking dangerously (for both her and her baby). Not much I've been able to do for her -- frustrating.

She was getting impatient to get the sprout out of her -- Caesarean or vaginal, she wasn't feeling particular anymore -- until a nurse took her on a tour of the NICU so she could see just how small a six-week preemie with an estimated birth weight of 4 1/2 pounds really is. She's feeling more patient now.
